About Me

I’ve always enjoyed organizing and planning events and trips as I saw it as a way to make sure there was always something fun and exciting for myself, family, and friends to look forward to. One of the things I’ve always wanted to put on was a golf tournament outside of the club environment, but not just one like all of us play several times a year. I wanted it to be something that would appeal to all sorts of golfers and include opportunities for camaraderie on and off the course. 

The inspiration for how this all came together is my family. Growing up we had regular family visits to All-Inclusive resorts throughout the Caribbean; my mum always enjoyed the ease and benefits of being at an all-inclusive result. Traveling to unique and different places was always important too, and something in particular my dad and brother have continued to do. And while golf was something we all sporadically did back then, it has become much more part of our lives in the past decade.

Combine all of those things and welcome to The Sunflower Cup!

Why the name? It was my mum’s favourite flower. A decorative staple in our house. She planned all our trips, encouraged exploring and traveling far from home, and of course was the mediator of all our golf shenanigans. It was a no brainer to name this in her memory.
